Say a Prayer to St. Rita

Hurricane Rita was several hundred miles due south of us this morning. We had a little breeze at ground level but up a few thousand feet patchy grey clouds moving fast east to west.Ominous if you knew why. The storm’s roughly the same distance south now but somewhat to the west of us. I was out a little while ago (around 9pm Central time) and there was a light steady easterly breeze. Again, ominous.

There’s a headline on Drudge right now: “Relief as hurricane fails to cause devastation.” Well, that depends on where you are. I just got back from Mass where I found that the parents and other relatives of our associate pastor, who’s from west Louisiana, have lost everything. It is in fact devastation there.

It could have been a whole lot worse, obviously. But this only looks good in comparison to Katrina, or what Rita might have done if she had remained a category 4 or 5 and hit Houston, or New Orleans.

ask the 3 archangels, saint Michael, Raphael and Gabriel (your repetition), light 3 white candles on a plate with water and sugar, do this petition for three days, on the third day publish this prayer, though you may not believe, see what happens on the fourth day.

SHOULDER WOUND OF JESUS CHRIST, “oh loving Jesus, meek lamb of god, I, a miserable sinner salute and worship the most sacred wound of thy shoulder, on which thou didst bear thy heavy cross, which so tore thy flesh and laid thy bones as to inflict an anguish greater than any other wound of thy most blessed body, I adore thee, oh Jesus most sorrowful, I praise and glorify thee, and give thanks fully to thee, for this most holy and sacred and painful wound, beseeching thee by that exceeding pain, and by the crushing burden of thy heavy cross to be merciful to me a most miserable sinner, -to forgive me all my mortal and venial sins, and to lead me on towards heaven along the way of thy cross, in Jesus name (your request) :amen to all.”
This most powerful prayer must be said for requests and most urgent help, after you have said it and asked for your requests-this prayer must be published.

This 9 day novena to St Rita is one of the most powerful I have ever come across. The impossible can really be overcome. Until the last moment I could feel that St Rita was right beside me, comforting me and helping me through a very difficult decision and guiding me in the right way. Forever I will be grateful.

Please St. Rita, build a “Hedge of Thorns” around my husband to ward off alll other negative relationships he is having with others. Please protect my marriage and bless us by agreeing with all the angels and saints in Heaven as we all life our prayers to God,. Protect my Husband`s heart from loving another and let my name be boldly printed in his heart so there will be no space for another woman. Arrest my Husband for your Glory. Amen.

O Holy Patroness of those in need, St. Rita, whose pleadings before thy Divine Lord are almost irresistible, who for thy lavishness in granting favors hast been called the Advocate of the Hopeless and even of the Impossible; St. Rita, so humble, so pure, so mortified, so patient and of such compassionate love for thy Crucified Jesus that thou couldst obtain from Him whatsoever thou askest, on account of which all confidently have recourse to thee, expecting, if not alwavs relief, at least comfort; be propitious to our petition, showing thy power with God on behalf of thy suppliant; be lavish to us, as thou hast been in so many wonderful cases, for the greater glory of God, for the spreading of thine own devotion, and for the consolation of those who trust in thee. We promise, if our petition is granted, to glorify, thee by making known thy favor, to bless and sing thy praises forever. Relying then upon thy merits and power before the Sacred Heart of Jesus, we pray: (here mention your request).

Obtain for us our request
By the singular merits of thy childhood,
By thy perfect union with the Divine Will,
By thy heroic sufferings during thy married life,
By the consolation thou didst experience at the conversion of thy husband,
By the sacrifice of thy children rather than see them grievously offend God,
By thy miraculous entrance into the convent,
By thy severe penances and thrice daily bloody scourgings,
By the suffering caused by the wound thou didst receive from the thorn of thy Crucified Savior,
By the divine love which consumed thy heart,
By that remarkable devotion to the Blessed Sacrament, on which alone thou didst exist for 4 years,
By the happiness with which thou didst part from thy trials to join thy Divine Spouse,
By the perfect example thou gavest to people of every state of life.

Pray for us, 0 holy St. Rita,
that we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.

Let us pray: O God, Who in Thine infinite tenderness hast vouchsafed to regard the prayer of Thy servant, Blessed Rita, and dost grant to her supplication that which is impossible to human foresight, skill and efforts, in reward of her compassionate love and firm reliance on Thy promise, have pity on our adversity and succor us in our calamities, that the unbeliever may know Thou art the recompense of the humble, the defense of the helpless, and the strength of those who trust in Thee, through Jesus Christ, Our Lord. Amen.

St Rita has helped me in so many situations I cannot even start to recall. My faith in her will always remain until my last breath on earth. I am ever so grateful to the lady who introduced me to St Rita and I will continue to introduce St Rita to people who are in need of her help. I will spread the word to one and all that, with faith, when in a desperate and impossible situation, a request is made to St Rita, it will be granted.

I have a compelling story to share with my fellow Catholics about my encounter with St.Rita. To start with, a strange red mark appeared on my forehead about 9 months ago and it reminded me of the wound on St. Rita’s forehead. Hence, I was drawn to her and decided to pray to her. The story starts back in 2007 when I met a young lady who stole my heart. I fell madly in love with her the moment I laid eyes on her. For the next 8 years I struggled to build a friendship with this girl, when I finally made a breakthrough in December 2015. Then three months later, on Easter Sunday, she broke my heart by telling me that she was seeing someone and that it was “serious”. So I countered by writing a six-page letter to this girl telling her about how I fell in love with her at first sight. The girl was shocked at my feelings and pushed me away and blocked me on Facebook. I was devastated. Then one day in May 2016 I looked in the mirror and noted that my forehead mark was actually turning into a darker red and spreading to about a quarter inch in diameter. It was then that I decided to start a nine day novena to St. Rita. To my amazement, I had discovered about five days into the novena that I was scheduled to wrap up the novena on the day of St. Rita’s feast. What a lovely coincidence! So here I am on the morning of St. Rita’s feast day, finished my novena asking for a marriage to the love-at-first-sight girl, and I decided to watch EWTN in the hopes of finding a program or documentary on St. Rita. When I turned on the TV to EWTN, there was a talk show on, and the guest of the program was Tim Staples. While Tim was giving his testimony, I noticed that his relationships with women were similar to mine. Then, he went into a lovely story about how he met his wife. He said he looked into her eyes for the first time and said “this is my wife”. Love at first sight! Just like with me! He also explained that his wife never felt the same feeling, and that “it took a while” to convince her to marry him. Now Tim and his lovely wife have nine children together. I took this as a sign from God that love-at-first-sight is real and it does happen and that all is possible through prayer and faith. Mr. Staples asked God for a wife, and God came through with flying colors. As for the girl that I love, well, she is still with her boyfriend. I haven’t spoken to her in eight months. But my heart is still on fire for her, and it was on this evening that I started thinking about St. Rita and her patronage of impossible cases. Then my conscience told me to get on the message boards and post my testimony – so here it is! The moral of the story is this: God speaks to us in wonderful miracles and coincidences through the intercession of our beloved St. Rita. It was my love of St. Rita that brought about these wonderful coincidences. And I just might start a new novena and ask St. Rita and our Lord to bring me and my lady love together so that I can love her with God’s sacred and holy love…in matrimony and in eternal life. Believe in love! Believe in God! Believe in the power of St. Rita’s intercessions! In the name of Jesus Christ, God bless all of my fellow Catholics. I promise to keep you all updated. +
